When Will Our Eyes be Opened to this Great M.
tional Calamity. ~.t. ,-.@
The year 1886 played sad havoc
with many prominent men of our
country.
Many OF them died without warm
ing, passing away apparently in the
full flush of life.
Others were sick but a comparative
ly short time. We turn to our files and
are astonlshed to find that most Of
them died Of apoplexy, of paralysis,
OF nervous prostration, OF malignant
blood humor, of Bright's disease, OF
heart disease, OF kidney disease, of
rheumatism or OF pneumonia.
1t is singular that most of our
prominent men die of these disorders.
Any journalist who watches the tele-
graph reports, will be astonished at
the number OF prominent victims OF
these disorders.
Many statements have appeared in
our paper with others to the effect
that the diseases that carried off so
many prominent men in 1886, are
really one disease, taking different
names according to the location OF
the fatal effects.
When a. valuable horse perishes, it
becomes the nine days talk of the
sporting world, and yet thousands OF
ordinary horses are dying every day,
their aggregate loss is enormous, and
yet their death creates no comment.
So it is with individuals. The
cause OF death OF prominent men
creates comment, especially when it
can be shown that one unsuspected
disease carries offmost OF them and vet
"vast numbers of ordinary men and
women die before their time every
year from the same cause"
1t is said if the blood is kept free
from uric acid, that heart disease,
paralysis, nervous prostration, pneu-
mona, rheumatism, and many cases OF
consumption, would never be known.
This uric acid, we are told, is the
waste OF the system, and It'll the
duty OF the kidneys to remove this
waste.
We are told that if the kidneys are
maintained in perfect health, the uric,
acid is kept out OF the blood, and
these. sudden and universal diseases
caused by uric acid will, in large
measure disappear.
But how shall this be done? 1t is
folly to treat effects. If there is any
known way Of getting at the cause
that way should be known to the pub
lie. We believe that Warmers safe
cure, Of which so much has been writ
ten, and SO much talked OF by the
public generally, is now recognized by
impartial physicians and the public
as the one specific for such diseases.
Because public attention has beer
directed to this great remedy by means
Of advertising, some persons have not
believed in the remedy. We cannot
see how Mr.. Warner could Immediate
ly benefit the public in any other way
and his valuable specific should MOI
be condemned because some nostrumE
have come before the public in the
same way, any more than that al
doctors should be condemned becaus,
SO many OF them are incompetent
1t is astonishing what good opin
ions you hear on every side OF tina
great remedy, and public opinion thu:
based upon an actual experience, ha.
! all the weight and Importance Of abso
lutte truth-
At this time Of the year, the uric acit
in the blood invites pneumonia ane
rheumatism, and there is not a mar
who does not dread these monsters O
disease; but he need have no fear O
them we are told, if he rid the blood O
the uric acid cause.
These words are strong, and may
sound like an advertisement, and be re
jected by unthinking people, but W
believe they are the truth, and as sucl
! should be spoken by every truth-lov
ing newsWaper.
